My books have gone missing on route to amazon trade-in:mad: I just hope I have the receipt to claim off royal mail! Arghhhhhhh

Oh no, that's awful. Hopefully you'll find the receipt.

just finished off 140 eBay listings to go live whenever free listing is. Almost out of things I've put aside now....then to start on the Facebook selling items.

Heading to the boyfriend's tonight because he bought some figurines years ago (Halo and the like) that are selling for £300 plus on eBay at the moment. He's caught my bug and wants them photographed and listed. I don't take commission from him as he's lovely...but perhaps I could suggest he sponsors the holiday fund a % or something.

Not sure what to do this afternoon then. My workload at work is a bit quiet and I've done all Swagbucks I can today. Any suggestions? Work internet is pretty lax....

Hi Little Miss Uni Debt,

Great thread. Can I join please? My 1% is £60.

Was wondering about making money on Elance and other such sites. You seem to have had some luck with them. Can you (or anyone else) give me any tips on actually being successful with proposals. I have written a comprehensive profile and uploaded several portfolio pieces (I freelance at the moment), but jobs seem to be going to those who will work for pennies with no thought to the quality.

Any thoughts?

Just got my first Tarot Card reading from the ad that I put on Gumtree a few weeks ago.
I'm hoping for more from word of mouth, but let's see.

Can I join you?

I feel really inspired and motivated so thank you all! :j


Can you put me down for £100 for 1% sounds much better than £10,000!
Does anyone know when EBay have another free listing weekend? They used to email me to tell me, but seem to have stopped telling me! :mad:

Welcome

Recently eBay seem to have been running free listings weekends every second week so I would expect to see one this coming weekend (if my calculations are correct), I've not had an email to confirm this but when they do come through they're not really a suprise to me if you see what I'm saying.

Almost 0.5% raised on Ebay so far Going to grab a plastic box and go on a raid! That has spurred me on a little bit, goes to show every single 99p counts

Debt_free_soon_2

Thanks decluttering, will check their home page on Sat!
If only I could stop checking on here for motivation and checking eBay to see if any bids have come in, I could be listing even more stuff! :-)
